October 5-11 was National 4-H Week. Did you know one of every 7 adult Americans was once a member of 4-H? More than ever, youth need meaningful ways to connect with and learn from positive adult mentors and role-models. If you are a 4-H Alumni we would like to hear from you and reconnect. For the month of October the Cooperative Extension Office, Located below the Alaska Fish and Game Office on Kalifornsky Beach Road, is asking alumni to stop in, say howdy, sign our alumni list and put a pin on a map, in the county or town where you had your first 4-H experience. Everyone who signs the alumni list will get a chance to win a free Kenai Peninsula 4-H t-shirt or hoodie and 4-H themed goodie-bag.
4-H is a positive youth development program of the University of Alaska Fairbanks and the Nation’s Land Grant University System. For more information about volunteering with or sponsoring your local 4-H program contact Jason Floyd at 907-262-5824.
